ABSTRACT:
An innovative microboard package, which includes not only a row of edge connector contacts along one long edge thereof, but also includes another row of edge connector contacts along the other long edge. The contacts are connected so that the functionality of the board can be changed merely by choosing one of the two orientations for insertion. For example, one embodiment provides a microprocessor module if insertion is done in one direction, and a microcontroller module if insertion in the other direction. Optionally, the row of contacts which is not inserted into the mother board can be connected to a jumper cable, using a simple connector header.
